REFUSED AND ENFORCEMENT ACTION AUTHORISED

Description of application – First floor side/rear and single storey rear extensions. Retrospective amendments to previous planning application with reference 17/01456/FULL6 to change the pitch of the roof, increase the ridge height and incorporate rooflights on all sides to facilitate a loft conversion and elevational alterations.

Oral representations in support of the application were received at the meeting.  It was reported that further objections to the application had been received from The Chislehurst Society.

Ward Members, Councillors Katy Boughey and Suraj Sharma, both objected to the application and acknowledged that the quality of building and design were quite good but that the roof design was bulkier than the plans submitted and out of character with the surrounding area.

Members having considered the report, objections and representations, RESOLVED that PERMISSION BE REFUSED as recommended for the reason set out in the report of the Chief Planner.  It was FURTHER RESOLVED that ENFORCEMENT ACTION BE AUTHORISED TO ENSURE REMEDIAL WORKS ARE CARRIED OUT TO THE ROOF.
